Abstract
Chemically and enzymatically isolated cuticles in the family Cupressaceae were examined with a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The inner surface of the cuticles has many micromorphological characters which show interspecific and intergeneric variations. Those above the generic level are less apparent. Taxonomic significance of the sculpture patterns is discussed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
